The World Thinking Day event at Inza R. Wood Middle School in Wilsonville February 22 took students for a trip around the world! Each troop studied the culture, foods, traditions and children of a different country then shared them with other troops. Wood was a colorful mix of costumes, flags, games and food - all representing various regions around the globe. The girls rotated through the assortment of tables playing games tasting, touching and reading about other cultures in a fun-filled night of learning and celebrating diversity. My daughter’s troop, 894, showed off Mexico! They celebrated games the of the country by playing pin the tail on the donkey and they handed out freshly made Mexican tortillas. Our family had just returned from a trip to Mexico so we had pesos, brochures, maps and a Mexican blanket to add to the colorful display. Girl Scout Troop 1424 hosted this event for their Girl Scout Bronze Award, the highest award that can be bestowed on girls at the Junior program age level. Junior Girl Scouts, either individually or together, utilize their leadership skills on a project that makes a positive impact on their community. Troop 1424’s leaders are Miriam Rasmussen, and Shelley Goff.
